Laser Dentistry

Our dentist uses the WaterLase® iPlus All-Tissue Laser for many of our procedures. This dental laser can replace the traditional hand drill. We choose this relatively new technology because it is considered a safe and effective alternative. We also know that lasers can offer you a variety of benefits.

No More Pain

The WaterLase® iPlus virtually eliminates pain for many dental procedures. Any anxiety you have about seeing the dentist can be quickly reduced once you experience treatment with this new equipment.

Less Time in the Dental Chair

With dental laser, we can treat your teeth faster and more efficiently. The WaterLase® we use does the same work as a dental drill in half the time. The hand drills can cause damage to your teeth and surrounding tissues. On the contrary, the laser does not damage the teeth during the process.

Reduced Need for Anesthetic

With our dental laser, you probably won’t need any anesthetic at all for treatments such as fillings. Since anesthetic injections are often the most feared part of dental procedures, you can have a relaxing experience with a laser.

Dental Drills Can Cause Anxiety

The whining sound of a dental drill may make some patients quite anxious. The drill’s screech is at a frequency that can jangle the nerves immediately. In contrast, we help patients have a seamless experience with dental laser.

Other Benefits of Dental Lasers

Our WaterLase® iPlus All-Tissue Laser offers an array of benefits that you may not be aware of. Here’s all that you need to know. Dental lasers also:

  • Reduce bleeding.
  • Reduce swelling.
  • Can save more of the tooth root when you are having a cavity filled.
  • Gentle and accurate that soft tissues may not require stitches.
  • Minimize risk for bacterial infections.
  • Promote faster healing.
  • Reduce risk for damage to surrounding tissues.
  • Allow more precise treatments.

Cavities

We can use the WaterLase® iPlus when we fill a cavity. First, we can use it to remove the decay from the tooth. This dental laser is 50% faster than a dental drill. It’s also quieter and more comfortable for you.

Gum Treatments

We can treat the soft tissues of your gums with the help of a laser. If you have a gummy smile, we can reshape your gums for a more pleasing appearance.

Biopsies and Lesion Removal

Biopsies become painless and effortless when we use dental laser to take a tissue sample from your mouth. If you have a lesion that proves to be benign, we can also remove it with the laser.

Oral Surgery

We can perform oral surgery with the use of a laser. Depending on the surgery you need, our dentists can work with soft tissues, teeth, and bones to help you achieve better oral health. The procedure is more precise and the healing time is effectively reduced.
